I see the light at the end of tunnel...

So I had my first appt Sept 2nd with NP.. I already did my sleep study last Sunday which I hated..I couldn't sleep.. hopefully I slept enuff.. Next week I have my endoscopy .. and my echogram.. by the end of this Month I will have all my test done and psych appt..then 3 more weigh ins.. When I started I thought omg.. 6 months of weigh ins.. I Will never get this surgery but it's going pretty fast.. now I have to decide if I want the sleeve or bypass.. I have acid reflux.. I am leaning towards sleeve..even if I have to take meds for a whole for my reflux.. it got worse as I was gaining weight.. so maybe it will go away as I lose weight.. I'm just letting everyone just starting..don't get discourage .. the time flies .. :-)

This is great to hear! I just started my journey today with my first consultation. I have to lose 25 lbs because my bmi is to high. Need to have a psych eval and 6 months medical supervised diet! And so my journey begins! Good luck to u!

Hang in there ladies! You can do it!

I would do the sleeve if I was you. No malabsorption issues. But that's just my opinion you do what u feel comfortable with. I took omeperzole prior to surgery and still take it. No big deal. I'm used to it now.
